He Stopped Loving Her Today
by
George Jones
This is country music at its finest. Excellent writing. Excellent singer. Excellent arrangement. Steel guitar to die for. What man or woman can listen to this song without major goosebumps and tears?
He Stopped Loving Her Today
Written by R. V. Braddock and C. Putman, Jr.
He said I'll love you 'til I die
She told him you'll forget in time
As the years went slowly by
She still preyed upon his mind
He kept her picture on his wall
Went half crazy now and then
He still loved her through it all
Hoping she'd come back again
Kept some letters by his bed
Dated 1962
He had underlined in red
Every single I love you
I went to see him just today
Oh but I didn't see no tears
All dressed up to go away
First time I'd seen him smile in years
(Chorus)
He stopped loving her today
They placed a wreath upon his door
And soon they'll carry him away
He stopped loving her today
(Spoken)
You know she came to see him one last time
Oh and we all wondered if she would
And it kept running through my mind
This time he's over her for good
(Repeat Chorus) -

Gosh, I just listened to this song again. When the chorus comes, the violins alone will make you cry. Then the back ground lady singer during the part where "She came to see him one more time",is so mournful. Wow.
